Our Principles

Our investment advisory services are based on the proven principles of value investing, as developed by Benjamin Graham, Warren Buffett, and Charlie Munger. We primarily focus on publicly traded companies in developed markets, with a clear emphasis on the USA, to identify attractive return opportunities within manageable risk.

Our Goals

Our goal is to generate above-average returns by selectively investing in a small number of global, resilient, and high-quality companies with attractive valuations. We intend to hold for the long-term and consistently invest in companies where we also commit our own capital to.

Charlie Munger

"It takes character to sit there with all that cash and do nothing. I didn't get to where I am by going after mediocre opportunities."

Philosophy

Our strategy is based on identifying quality stocks using the Graham & Dodd value investing principles and can be described as follows.

Understandable Business Model

The company should be easy to understand.

Competent Management

The management acts with a long-term perspective and in a shareholder-friendly manner.

Enduring Competitive Advantages

Protection through brand, patents, and high market entry barriers.

Strong Balance Sheet

Companies that do not require debt capital to survive.

High Margin of Safety

The stock price must be significantly below its intrinsic value.

Limit External Risks

No dependence on unpredictable factors such as commodity prices or regulations.

Corporate Sustainability

For institutional clients, we conduct comprehensive sustainability tests on potential investments, focusing on three key areas: exclusion criteria, best-in-class ESG score comparisons, and CO2 intensity.
